If it is a competitive market, you can expect that you have to be in the house the day it hits the mls for example and ready to make an offer that day.

Example:  If I'm buying a house that with purchase and remodel will be $100,000 and I put in $50k, and my silent partner puts in $50k, what's the split? 

Here’s an example of one instance where American Homes 4 Rent (AH4R) has issued about a half-billion dollars in bonds, at an average pass-through rate of 4.138% (there’s that number I used for our mortgage for comparison purposes).

Example: I bought a foreclosure 3/2 in 2011 for 65k off Cheyenne and the Blvd.

Examples of scenarios that justify the use of a lease agreement]

For example, a lot was listed , I made the offer, contract executed, and right now I have it under contract for $7000 and the owner owes $5000 in taxes..

This is one of a few examples of how the he alters rules to prevent others doing certain things in our building but bends the rules as he sees fit.

-Example if I am 650k into this thing (including land) and it appraises for 750k can I use the equity as part of my downpayment?  

I will PM you some examples

It is a math problem, in your example sure take the loan makes great sense, other times like when you are forced in to 5% loans with 20 year ams it and high fees on a property you plan to keep for a few years it doesn't make sense to take a loan.I have loans on 2 condos, 4 duplexes, a 12 unit, and a 19 unit but dont have loans many low priced single family properties
